First boat ride and Astro Skate

So much fun is going on and the days get very busy. While we are getting our school work done we have also been to the skate park, Marlee has gone surfing, we took the boat out for the first time this year and first time for Maria. The other day we also went roller skating with one of our co-ops. So much fun! When I’m writing this Alex and I (and Maria) are on our yearly get away to Idaho. This year we also made a quick stop in a Minnesota, a state I had never been to. :-) 

Before posting new pictures I want to post a picture that I posted last time, except this time I merged two pictures to get Maria’s face in it as well. The two right rectangles are one picture and the left two is another picture.

She did so good in her (David’s old) life vest. 



A very cold Rafael after surfing behind the boat. The water is not really warm yet. However, for a Swede it’s not so bad. 





This picture cracks me up!!😂

Noah was on the boat ride as well but somehow didn’t appear in front of the camera. He didn’t want to surf behind the boat. During the boat trip we also went to explore an island but I left the phone on the boat so no pictures do that. 

Gabriel created a little photo shoot and took pictures of his sister 💙💕 He is so creative and artistic!




Astro skate with coop. David dis not want to skate but he was happy just hanging out. We did go for a walk (David on a bike) outside for a while to enjoy the beautiful weather and let David have some fun. 



Flower we found during our walk. 


Maria is so popular everywhere we go!


Leaving the boys with farmor and heading out of town! I had less than three hours of sleep so I might look a little tired :-D

Gorgeous weather!!

The weather has been gorgeous lately and we try to be outside as much as possible.


We went a little north along the beach and explored some new territories :-)








Sleeping beauty has moved into hit crib and left the bassinet for night sleep.



Gabriel went on a field trip the past week with one of his friends. They found a sea horse in the river!!

At coop and time for art.


Gabriel giving a presentation on his cursive writing. Marlee and Noah are taking an online cursive class and Gabriel wanted to do it to.


We made it to a ballet in Orlando the other day despite the crazy traffic in Ormond thanks to bike week. It was a two hour show and I was a little worries the little ones would not be able to sit still and enjoy it but they all enjoyed it!! It was based on the book Screwtape letters by CS Lewis (author of the Narnia books).



Seven month at the end of February!!! 



Sweet dreams!
